Summary

"Corruption and Development in Asian Nations" examines the pervasive issue of corruption in Asia, ranging from local officials' demands for accommodation to multi-million dollar bribery by corrupt politicians. We explore how corruption affects various sectors, including job-related abuses, future job delivery in the private sector, and issues faced by law-abiding government employees. The book also covers topics like money laundering and ‘white elephant’ projects that benefit engineers and their political allies.
Divided into four main sections—corruption and the state, corruption and economic development, corruption and society, and corruption control—this book discusses theories, stories, and trends of corruption and anti-corruption reforms in Asia. We compare and contrast corruption in different social and institutional contexts, examining both successful and unsuccessful efforts to control it and the lessons learned from these experiences.
This comprehensive guide appeals to students and scholars of Asian, political, and social sciences, offering valuable insights into the complexities of corruption and its impact on development.

    In the 1930s, the Federal Writers' Project sent mostly anonymous writers into the depths of Florida to reveal its splendor to the world. The FWP and the State of Florida jointly published the results as Florida: A Guide to the Southernmost State, which included twenty-two driving tours of the state's main roads. Retracing the original routes in the Guide, Cathy Salustri rekindles our notions of paradise by bringing a modern eye to the historic travelogues. 
     
     
     
    Salustri's 5,000-mile road trip reveals a patchwork quilt of Florida cultures. The journey begins on US 98, heading west toward the Florida/Alabama state line, where coastal towns dot the roadway. Along US 17, she stops at Florida's oldest diner and visits a collection of springs interconnected by underwater mazes tumbling through white spongy limestone, before stopping in Arcadia, where men still bring cattle to auction. 
     
     
     
    Woven through these journeys are nuggets of history, environmental debates about Florida's future, and a narrative that combines humor with a strong affection for an oft-maligned state. 
     
     
     
    Today, Salustri urges, tourists need a new nudge to get off the interstates or away from Disney in order to discover the real Florida.

    Sea State - A Memoir

    A Recommended Read from: Vogue * USA Today * The Los Angeles Times * Publishers Weekly * The Week * Alma * Lit Hub 
    A stunning and brutally honest memoir that shines a light on what happens when female desire conflicts with a culture of masculinity in crisis 
    In her midthirties and newly free from a terrible relationship, Tabitha Lasley quit her job at a London magazine, packed her bags, and poured her savings into a six-month lease on an apartment in Aberdeen, Scotland. She decided to make good on a long-deferred idea for a book about oil rigs and the men who work on them. Why oil rigs? She wanted to see what men were like with no women around. 
    In Aberdeen, Tabitha became deeply entrenched in the world of roughnecks, a teeming subculture rich with brawls, hard labor, and competition. The longer she stayed, the more she found her presence had a destabilizing effect on the men—and her. 
    Sea State is on the one hand a portrait of an overlooked industry: “offshore” is a way of life for generations of primarily working-class men and also a potent metaphor for those parts of life we keep at bay—class, masculinity, the transactions of desire, and the awful slipperiness of a ladder that could, if we tried hard enough, lead us to security. 
    Sea State is on the other hand the story of a journalist whose professional distance from her subject becomes perilously thin. In Aberdeen, Tabitha gets high and dances with abandon, reliving her youth, when the music was good and the boys were bad. Twenty years on, there is Caden: a married rig worker who spends three weeks on and three weeks off. Alone and in an increasingly precarious state, Tabitha dives into their growing attraction. The relationship, reckless and explosive, will lay them both bare.
